Sweet Potato Crackers

Okay, folks. Get ready to treat yourselves. If you’ve been missing something salty and crunchy to munch on on your gluten-free, grain-free, egg-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and/or autoimmune protocol diet, these Sweet Potato Crackers are the kitchen magic you’ve been looking for. With just a handful of ingredients and a very hands-off cooking time, making crackers has never been easier. If you can’t find store-bought sweet potato puree, you can make your own by baking 2-3 sweet potatoes, peeling them, and pureeing them in your blender. You can also substitute pumpkin puree or use any other type of winter squash (butternut, for example). Feel free to leave out the rosemary, add more salt to taste, or throw in other seasonings like garlic powder or dill for whatever kind of flavor you want your crackers to have. This is a very adaptable recipe!

Struggling with thyroid disease?

Why Do I Still Have Thyroid Symptoms? by functional medicine practitioner Datis Kharrazian is single-handedly responsible for my improved health over the past few years. It introduced me to the connection between autoimmune disease and lifestyle factors like diet at a time when my doctors were telling me there was nothing wrong with my thyroid even though I had high antibodies. This book gave me the information I needed to get the right tests ordered and seek proper treatment. It’s a must-have guide for anyone who has already been diagnosed with thyroid disease, who is at risk due to family history, or who strongly suspects they may have it but isn’t sure where to start. I can’t recommend it enough!
